Question

He is A great man to me he treats me like a queen and he waits for me hand on foot and I think that he will be a great father to my daughter since her biological dad really wants nothing to do with her and when he talks to my belly she kicks and she stays on the side that he is at in that moment

I would be careful until there was a total committment, as in marriage. Kids need a stable and secure environment and until you are for sure that he is going to be there in the long run I don't think it will be a good idea to give him that responsibility/gift until he makes it known just how long he will be there.

depends if ur getting married fine, if not no sense creating more drama if it doesn't work out. I was a single mom for awhile and there was absolutely no way anyone, no matter how nice they were, got to meet my son. it's bad enough mom and dad aren't together let alone having all kinds of other people disappearing out of his life when dating didn't work out

Sort of in the same boat, Im not with my DDs father anymore, and have been with anew guy for about a year now, were engaged and getting married. I Feel like thats the only acception, who knows how long this relationship will last? Does he have any kids of his own? While you may like him a lot, you should wait on that whole daddy thing. It just isnt fair to your baby. That should be number one on your list now of important things. Dont let your feelings for him interfere with you being a mom. Its hard and you may want to but, unless there are wedding plans, I wouldnt let my DD call him dad. He has to prove to you that he is gonna stick. THe hard part hasnt even come yet. Wait till the baby comes and see how things change.
